In a pursuit, drive through a Pursuitbreaker and it switch to an intermission sequence. After it ends you should have control over your car. If there are any police cars around you, you can drive through them. If this does not work at first, keep trying.

Activate your Blocker/Brawler before the race. While racing and coming up towards a speed trap, stop your Blocker/Brawler. Your Blocker/Brawler will stop, crash the other car(s), and drastically slow down their time. Remember that the peak Blocker/Brawler moment is just before the speed trap.

Once you have completed career mode, set Samson as your wingman with Neville also in your crew. You can repeat any races you have already completed in which a wingman is used and recieve $750 for each race completed instead of the $500 without. This can also be used on first time races for maximum cash output.

When racing and your speed,handling are low use a scout or a breaker.the scout will be first but if your 2nd or 3rd you will win if not other crew members are first. Breaker will knock out opponents and give you more time to win while da knockout opponents are stil down and slow. - Sent by [wwegamerdude]

In races where crew members are used, used a scout (Yumi if possible). If you do not win the race, your scout will.

When in Career mode, choose the Exotic class. When you get to the Stacked Deck level, get a Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Once this happens, Neville, Colin, and Nikki will still have exotic cars. Choose one of them and do any race where you can use your wingman. You should have easy win.

Go into "My Crew" then choose a crew member. Select the "View Car" option. Then, customize it. You can paint it whatever color desired, and because your crew members cars are not tuned you can buy them performance parts for free.
